The ASUS Zenbook UX301 comes with an Intel Core i7-4558U processor that's faster than regular Ultrabook U-series processors. It also has a slightly more powerful Intel Iris graphics 5100 onboard GPU, which powers the sharp QHD (2560 x 1440p) display. To keep things running smoothly, the UX301 relies on its 8GB RAM as well as its 256GB SSD. To ensure it retain its good looks, the UX301's lid has a layer of Gorilla Glass to protect it against scratches.
